Vampire's Slice Of Life Chapter 703  Saving Ren, Ralph, and Dennis

Chapter 703  Saving Ren, Ralph, and Dennis

Stuck in between a rock and a hard place, Lith finally felt pressurized.

Is this an illusion? Is this even real? Was he dreaming?

There were many questions that popped inside his mind.

When in so much doubt, and not understanding what to do, Lith suddenly remembered what his sister had said to him.

"Whenever you feel like you're put in a situation where you could choose only one… don't."

"Don't choose, rather, change your perspective and look through the eyes of an observer."

An observer saw a situation much differently than the person present in that moment. He doesn't need to make a choice, for the situation's outcome doesn't bother him.

This would give him freedom to have a wider understanding of things and eventually look for alternatives to what can be done.

This was what Lucy was trying to teach Lith.

After what she had said, Lith remembered his mother's teaching about illusions.

"If you cannot differentiate between an illusion, dream, and reality… always treat it as if it's real, but, let your thoughts run free as if you're in an illusion and could bend realities."

Having sudden enlightenment from it, Lith immediately closed his eyes and looked everywhere through his senses instead of focusing on Ren or his two friends.

Not even a second later, Lith found out this active volcano could burst any moment.

There was a small vent at the bottom which was letting of hot vapors from it and keeping it from erupting, but it wasn't big enough to handle it much.

This would let the volcano erupt and eventually consume everything in its path.

Lith got the needed hint and immediately dashed downwards, ignoring Ren and his two friends.

His sudden action surprised Mr. Carrot who was watching as a spectator.

"Kekeke, your both closed ones will die."

Mr. Carrot wanted to see Lith lose someone close to him. He really wanted to, thus intervened and kept saying weird things to hurt Lith.

He was a spectator and couldn't interfere physically; words were his only way.

Lith's brain automatically ignored something which wasn't coming in his way. His full focus was on the vent at the bottom of the volcano.

As he reached the vent, he could see lava flowing from it.

Without wasting a single moment, Lith cast an AOE Water element spell on the areas near the vent.

A loud explosion occurred.

Such a disturbance would've caused the lava to erupt like a bomb, but the water cooled down and solidified the lava, causing it to turn obsidian as well as various other precious rocks.

Tumultuous changes occurred within the volcano. Lith ignored them all and went to attack other weak places at the base.

Streams and streams of lava erupted from the volcano in just a matter of seconds and Lith dashed up towards where Ren and his friends were.

Getting up, he saw Ren whimpering while being caught by the spider.

On the other side, the centipede that was going down had its movement delayed because a good amount of the lava's level had dropped.

Lith took a deep breath and took out a lance from his ring. He equipped it with a Destruction spell and sent it flying towards the spider that was holding Ren.

The lance was sizzling with the Destruction elements around it and bending s.p.a.ce, it crushed the spider's skull in one b.l.o.o.d.y shot and pinned it to the surface behind it.

Ren was in the spider's clutches and since the body of a spider was still alive and moving for a while, he hadn't been dropped down.

It would take a few minutes for the spider to be fully dead, just enough for Lith to get his friends.

If possible, Lith would've used the s.p.a.ce element but there were too many restrictions on him. ???ℯ????.???

The only available elements were Time, Destruction, Water, and Wind.

The only saving grace was being able to use the Water element. Although the concentration was really low and Lith could only just use one more attack for it.

s.p.a.ce would've made things so much easier with Lith being able to teleport immediately and save the two in a jiffy.

However, that wasn't much of a guarantee since the lava levels were way too high and his two friends would've died by the centipede going down already.

The lava levels had dropped by a good 50% by this time.

Lith used the Wind elements and using knowledge of proper aerodynamics, charged at the front with super sonic speeds.

Reaching the centipede, Lith wasted no time and took out a metallic sword.

He equipped it with Destruction again and hit the centipede.

CLANG!

What happened was that the centipede was startled, and shrieked.

The attack had no effect on its tough body, and due to being startled, it dug its claws deeper into Dennis and Ralph's body, making blood gush out.

'f.u.c.k ME!' Lith had a pained expression on his face as he saw that.

His friends didn't scream or yell or do anything. They just quietly were there in the centipede's claws, knowing full well that if they did something, they were sure to die by the centipede itself.

Lith wasn't aware that the centipede had such a tough exoskeleton. It wasn't visible from so far away.

Understanding the situation now, Lith put the sword in his ring and took out gauntlets. He charged at the centipede and using Destruction energy again, grabbed the centipede's head from the back.

Lith dug his sharp claws pulsating with immense energy into the centipede and finding enough grip, initiated the next attack.

The adrenaline coursed through his body, making his blood boil, yet calming himself down, casted the next spell:

'Ten thousand fragments.'

A loud rumbling resounded in the atmosphere and Lith's claws could be seen vibrating at a speed faster than sound itself.

The centipede shrieked its life out and wiggled violently, causing more harm to Dennis and Ralph, however, the claws dug deeper into its body and in just a few seconds….

BOOOOOM!

The centipede's body exploded into ten thousand fragments.

Ralph and Dennis were caught by Lith in time and didn't fall into the lava below.

Lith took them to safety on the ground and went to fetch Ren.

Once all three were down, Lith looked at the three's injuries.

He got to work and started healing them.
